Can't open the MCPP file? You are not the only one. Thousands of users face similar problems every day. Below you will find tips on how to open MCPP files as well as a list of programs that support MCPP files.
MCPP file extension
The MCPP file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the MCPP files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the MCPP file on each system platform.
What is MCPP file?
The file with the extension MCPP is the Raster Image Files file type. Additionally, the Raster Image Files category contains 522 of other files. ATARI Paradox Picture Image Format is supported by 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. It is recommended to use RECOIL to handle this file. This is a program created by Piotr Fusik and Adrian Matoga.
How to open MCPP file?
The main problem with ATARI Paradox Picture Image Format is that the MCPP file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file MCPP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MCPP file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install RECOIL
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that RECOIL is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing RECOIL into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file MCPP.
Programs to open MCPP file
Remember to download programs supporting MCPP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RECOIL with MCPP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MCPP file to open in the RECOIL application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the MCPP file with the RECOIL program.
Step 3. Update RECOIL to the latest version
If, however, after binding RECOIL with ATARI Paradox Picture Image Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Piotr Fusik and Adrian Matoga page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MCPP file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The MCPP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to MCPP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MCPP file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected MCPP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of MCPP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MCPP files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MCPP except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move MCPP to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MCPP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
